Is there any place on the internet where I can purchase a 1991 SAAB
900S 16 Valve Non-turbo who sells this engine rebuilt or
remanufactured?? Here is the problem. I'm a sailor here in Naples
Italy. Halfway on the way to Rome the engine overheated and blew the
3rd piston. I also now have a bad crankshaft.
Does anybody have a "ballpark" figure about how much it would cost to
rebuild the whole engine? It doesn't make sense to just replace the
one piston. I tried talking to the Italian mechanics but this whole
country is on vacation now till next month. Also I hear horror stories
about their work quality too.
The car is a beautiful car that myself and my wife enjoy very much.
Immaculate interior. But if we can't find a good deal on a engine, we
may have to junk it which is what I really really really don't want to
do. I welcome any comments, suggestions or advice. Thank you.
